Three element A,B and C crystallise into a cubic solid lattice. Atoms A occupy the corners, B occupy the cube centres and C occupy the edges. The formula of the compound is `:`

A

ABC

B

`ABC_(2)`

C

`ABC_(3)`

D

`ABC_(4)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

No. of .A. atoms `= ( 1)/( 8 ) xx 8 = 1 `
No. of .B. atoms `= 1 xx1 = 1 `
No. of .C. atoms `= ( 1)/( 4) xx 12 = 3 `
Formula `= ABC_(3)`
